The Whistler Film Festival has announced its Mountain Film festival program roster. Three films representing a diverse global angle will be featured in the festival, which runs Dec. 4 to 8. Sklmnti: Not something you see every day. Watch "street punks" perform ski stunts on the streets of Latvia. The WFF heralds this film's "incredible camera work and an extraordinary music score," a pairing that adds excitement to urban ski stunts "like you've never seen before." Crash Reel: The closing-night film from director Lucy Walker explores the hyper-competitive rivalry between halfpipe masters Shaun White and Kevin Pearce, and the bravery that Pearce displayed during his road to recovery after a debilitating head injury. Walker collects archival material and home movies to craft a well-rounded film about character and determination. Crash Reel premiered at Sundance, and captured audience awards at SXSW, Dallas, and Melbourne film festivals.

Revelstoke versus Nelson. It’s a ski-town rivalry not unlike the Big Ten’s Michigan versus Ohio State. Or the Leafs against the Canadiens. Or Barca versus Real.OK, it’s not nearly in those leagues, but skiers and riders from around the world today have the chance to vote in Powder Magazine’s Ski Town Throwdown.
